Costa ES, Izar MC, Fonseca FAH, França C, Tria H. The benefits of green banana biomass consumption in patients with diabetes mellitus. Federal University of São Paulo, São Paulo, 2015.
According to the Guidelines of the Brazilian Society of Diabetes, Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a heterogeneous group of metabolic disorders associated with microvascular complications, hyperglycemia, resulting in a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Currently, it is estimated that the world population with diabetes is 382 million people and it is expected to reach 471 million in 2035. About 80% of individuals with diabetes live in developing countries where the epidemic has greater intensity. In the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial and UK Prospective Diabetes Study demonstrated that intensive glycemic control (HbA1c ~ 7.0%) reduces chronic microvascular complications. The resistant starch (RS) is defined as starch and products of its hydrolysis are not absorbed in the small intestine. The green banana presents significant levels of RS, and it is considered a source for the intake of this substance. These foods have physiological functions in the intestinal regulation in glycemic control and delayed gastric emptying. To our knowledge, there are no long-term studies with DM to prove the benefits of resistant starch use. The objective of this study is to assess the benefits of green banana biomass consumption by patients with Pre DM and DM. Considering the possibility of improving glucose, lipid profile, increasing the secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), insulin, adiponectin, and reduction in inflammatory markers IL-6, PCR.
详细描述
INTRODUCTION Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes In Brazil, chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) were the cause of 72% of deaths and reached 63% in the world in 2008, with large numbers of premature deaths. Cardiovascular disease (31.3%), Diabetes Mellitus (DM) (5.2%), cancer (16.3%) and respiratory disease (5.8%) are the main causes of NCDs, leading to loss of quality of life, causing economic impacts that lead to increased poverty. These factors can be reversed through broad interventions and cost-effective health promotion. (Schmidt et al, 2011;. Malta et.al., 2011).
Currently, it is estimated that the world population with diabetes is 382 million people and it is expected to reach 471 million in 2035. About 80% of individuals with diabetes live in developing countries, where the epidemic has greater intensity, with increasing proportion of people affected in younger age groups, coexisting with the problem that infectious diseases still represent. (International Diabetes Federation, 2013; Brazilian Diabetes Society, 2015).
Brazilian data show in 2011 that DM mortality rates (per 100,000 inhabitants) is 30.1 for the general population, 27.2 in men and 32.9 in women, increasing significantly with advancing age, which varies from 0.50 for the age group among 0-29 years to 223.8 for individuals aged from 60 or more, ie an increase of 448 times. (Ministry of Health (USA), 2014; Brazilian Diabetes Society, 2015).
According to the Brazilian Society of Diabetes (2015), DM is a heterogeneous group of metabolic disorders associated to microvascular complications, hyperglycemia, resulting in a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD), resulting from defects in insulin action, in insulin secretion or both.
The reference values for diagnosis of DM are glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c)> 6.5% being confirmed in another collecting and dispensable in case of symptoms or glucose> 200 mg and prediabetes HbA1c between 5.7% and 6 4% (Brazilian Society of Diabetes, 2015).
